Path-based platform input
First Claim
1. A method for providing input using movement off vehicle, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by a processing circuit, movement data indicating movement of the vehicle;
comparing, by the processing circuit, the movement data to a predefined movement pattern stored in a memory coupled to the processing circuit;
determining, by the processing circuit, whether the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern; and
in response to determining the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern, initiating, by the processing circuit, an action of the vehicle defined in the memory as corresponding to the predefined movement pattern, wherein the vehicle is an aircraft, and wherein determining whether the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern comprises determining whether a flight path of the aircraft matches a predefined flight path.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing input using movement of a vehicle or other platform are provided. One method includes obtaining, by a processing circuit, movement data indicating movement of the vehicle, comparing, by the processing circuit, the movement data to a predefined movement pattern stored in a memory coupled to the processing circuit, and determining, by the processing circuit, whether the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern. The method further includes, in response to determining the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern, initiating, by the processing circuit, an action of the vehicle defined in the memory as corresponding to the predefined movement pattern.

13. A system for providing input using movement of a vehicle,
the system comprising: -
an interface configured to obtain movement data indicating movement of the vehicle; and an electronic processor configured to; compare the movement data to a predefined movement pattern stored in a memory coupled to the processing circuit; determine whether the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern; obtain secondary authentication data; and in response to determining the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern, initiate an action of the vehicle defined in the memory as corresponding to the predefined movement pattern by authenticating an operator of the vehicle in response to both determining the movement data matches the predefined movement pattern and verifying the secondary authentication data. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system for authenticating an operator of an aircraft, the system comprising:
-
a position determination system configured to generate flight path data indicating movement of the aircraft, the position determination system comprising at least one of a global positioning system of an inertial measurement unit of the aircraft; a movement-based control system comprising a processing circuit and a memory, the processing circuit configured to; compare the flight path data to predefined flight path characteristics stored in a memory coupled to the processing circuit; determine whether the flight path data matches the predefined flight path characteristics; and in response to determining the flight path data matches the predefined flight path characteristics, generate an indication that a flight path of the aircraft matches the predefined flight path characteristics; and an authentication system configured to authenticate the operator of the aircraft in response to receiving the indication that the flight path of the aircraft matches the predefined flight path characteristics.
